Ingredients
– 12 ounces tortellini (fresh or frozen)
– 1 pound beef sirloin or flank steak, thinly sliced
– 2 tablespoons olive oil
– 1 medium onion, sliced
– 1 green bell pepper, sliced
– 2 cloves garlic, minced
– 1 cup beef broth
– 1 cup heavy cream
– 1 ½ cups provolone cheese, shredded
– Salt and pepper, to taste
– Fresh parsley, chopped (for garnish)
Instructions
Follow these straightforward steps to create your amazing Cheesesteak Tortellini in Creamy Provolone Sauce:
1. Cook the Tortellini: Start by boiling a large pot of water. Cook the tortellini according to package instructions until al dente. Drain and set aside.
2. Prepare the Beef: Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Season the sliced beef with salt and pepper. Add it to the skillet and sauté until browned, about 3-4 minutes. Remove the beef and set it aside.
3. Sauté Vegetables: In the same skillet, add the sliced onion and bell pepper. Sauté for about 5 minutes, until they begin to soften. Add minced garlic and cook for an additional 1-2 minutes until fragrant.
4. Make the Sauce: Pour in the beef broth and bring it to a simmer. Let it cook for about 3-4 minutes, allowing the flavors to meld. Reduce the heat to low and stir in the heavy cream. Allow it to simmer gently for another 3 minutes.
5. Add the Cheese: Gradually stir in the shredded provolone cheese until it melts and the sauce becomes creamy.
6. Combine Everything: Return the cooked beef to the skillet and add the tortellini. Toss gently to coat all the ingredients in the creamy sauce.
7. Taste and Adjust: Check for seasoning and adjust with more salt and pepper as needed.
8. Garnish and Serve: Remove from heat. Sprinkle with chopped parsley and serve immediately.
